Banana Burrito

Okay, this is one of the yummiest raw snacks, and I'm sure it's been blogged to death, but in case you have not used collards in this way, you simply must!  This is my all time favorite pre-run snack.

Step #1:  Take a large collard leaf.


Step #2:  Cut out the thick part of the stem as it can be a bit sour.  Save it for a green smoothie addition.


Step #3:  Add a banana, ripe if you want a sweeter burrito.



Step #4:  Slather the banana with raw almond butter, or nut butter of your choice.


Step #5:  Sprinkle on some raisins.  


Step #6:  Fold up the sides.


Step #7:  Don't freak out because it looks weird!  Enjoy your banana burrito and prepare to run like the wind 1 1/2 to 2 hours later.  

Question:  What fills your favorite burrito?
